It's that time of year again, a Sunday where I'm bored and want to listen to some interesting music

What are your favourite rock bands from places besides the U.S., Britain Australia, etc?

For reference, I am currently enjoying the following artists:

  • Bjornarna, Asta Kask (Swedish)
  • Die Toten Hosen, Die Artze (German)
  • Kult, Republika (Polish)
  • Metro Luminal (Estonian)
  • BTR (Bulgarian)
  • Kino, Bi-2 (Russian)
  • Indochine, Telefone, Luke (French)

Doesn't necessarily need to be from where you were from, just nice music to jam to!

Dunno how you missed the existence of math rock. It's pretty much prog rock married to hardcore punk, and is mostly about complex and changing time signatures, so the folks have to count stuff all the time. As someone has put it, "it's unclear how the musicians know where in the song they are".

Check out The Dillinger Escape Plan, Mammals, Ruins, Lanzallamas, Needle Play, UneXpect.

If you dig any of that, you might also like Mamaleek, although they are different, and also change the sound considerably between the albums: trip-hop metal on earlier albums, bluesy metal on later ones.
